I'll be vacationing in New Zealand and Australia from Jan. 29 to Mar 2. I'll have limited Internet access for the first two weeks and then it will depend on the capabilities of each hotel.

Let's hope for a quiet vacation this time. Last August's vacation we found a new prime. Last October's vacation disaster struck the server.

How about instead of hoping for a quiet vacation, we hope for a repeat of the August vacation, including two primes!

Hmmm ... 33 days. Time enough for both!

So does that mean you're not giving permission to find a new Mersenne prime?

It's a secret, but we will see Mr. Prime95 hectically moving his arms because the primes are found (again) in his vacations.

The M-primes even follow him in his vacations ;=) ...

To avoid confusion with a previous thread (or two)
may I suggest "Yet Another Vacation" as a title?

Well, Mr. Prime95 is important but it's not the very probable that the whole mersenne prime world will go to hell if he's not available for a few weeks :D
